Xinhua reported that China's President Xi Jinping visited a hospital in Beijing this afternoon to lead the prevention and control of new coronavirus infections.

It is the first time that Xi Jinping visited a new corona site since the spread of infectious diseases.

Mr. Xi visited Beijing Ditan Hospital to review the hospitalization of patients with new corona.

Then, by linking to the severely ill patient hospital in Wuhan, the origin of the new corona, we received reports from the Central Leadership Group and the Hubei Provincial Command Department, encouraging the medical staff to struggle in the front line.

Mr. Xi also visited the Chaoyang District Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

Mr. Xi was reported on emergency measures and epidemiological investigations in Chaoyang District, and briefed on Beijing's response.

He visited a resident's committee in Chaoyang District to report on the situation of first-line protection and providing daily necessities of the residents, and comforted the workforce and residents.

Mr. Xi has presided over meetings such as the Communist Party Congress in Beijing since the outbreak of the new corona, but never visited the scene.

The person who visited Wuhan in person and met with medical staff was not Mr. Shi, but also Prime Minister Li Ke-chang.

Unlike President Xi's visit to the scene of a major disaster or disaster, some analysts said that the invisibility at the forefront of new corona prevention was to avoid political responsibility for the failure of the response.
